      Is there an app that we can just plug the data into? My results are confusing. I have many highs and lows. My lows are WBC, neutrophils, triglycerides, and chloride. My highs are monos, total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, ALT, and High sensitivity C reactive protein. Some of these seem contradictory so I’d definitely like to triangulate the results. If there is an app out there please let me know.

    This man is absolutely amazing! I came here to get a better understanding of my blood test results and if I should use a different lab. I feel that this doctor either has done a lot of research into flying a plane or he is also a pilot. Everything he said about being a pilot is what I was taught in flight school; we are to trust our instruments. I’m not confident my blood test results are accurate because of how I’m feeling. The test results are similar to the instruments and you should trust both. I began thinking about an infamous aircraft accident, Air France 447 that crashed in the middle of the Atlantic because of several factors, one being inexperience and 2. Both pilots did as they were taught to trust their instruments, mean while the aircraft was in a stall and rapidly descending at more than 10,000 feet per minute. With that said I’m using a different lab.

      Really? Of course you need to buy his videos. After all there is no free lunch ! Besides he actually supplies something useful and needed. The $$$ he makes allows him to do this teaching. Do you work for free? I don’t ...because I cannot afford to work for free in our capitalist society. So do the ethical thing -- buy his video --and be thankful it is such a great product!

    Can you tell me what the RBC results would look like in a patient with pernicious anemia and iron deficiency at the same time? I developed peripheral neuropathy, but my MCV stayed right at 99 or 100 for quite a while. Finally it went to 101 and my B12 was 252 (250 to ~1100 was normal range), but my doctor still didn't make the connection. The psychiatrist he sent me to put me on B12 injections, and after several months, I could see improvement. What do the RBCs look like? Is iron usually measured directly when the RBCs look normal? I've been curious about this for years, but never find the answers when I look into it.

    in the example above with K result shooting over, it is more likely to note it isnt about mixed up test but more likely issues on extraction, like fishing, clenching of fist by the patient, or prolonged tourniquet. it is almost impossible to mixed to mix up patients sample cos samples are labelled with bar codes unless you're a clumsy laboratorian. just saying hehe

    The lab results of my magnesium RBC is 8.3 H it's marked High. I am 64 yrs old female who doesn't drink alcohol but this year I drank 1 glass of wine but I don't smoke.
    I don't take supplements just eating foods. I always heard that eating bananas to get magnesium i just read that all the juices that I drank were for good health. Has magnesium. Should I be worried?

    This doesn’t really breakdown any test results and what they mean. Also the most common result for a randomly high potassium would be hemolysis from a bad blood draw or hard stick patient, which is pretty common to see, and easy to notice in a lab when the plasma portion is red instead of yellow
